[QUOTE="AxeMan - Rick S., post: 27764, member: 1746"] I was a printing ink color matcher for 25 years. I don’t know how relevant this is to this thread but I would like to point out that there has been discussion for years on what colors your eyes see best. This is what I was taught in the printing industry. We all know the three primary colors that make up all colors are: Red, Blue, and Yellow. Based on the color wheel of the three primary colors. Your eyes see the color Red the best or any color made from Red more then any other color. Followed by the color Blue that our eyes find appealing. And finally the color Yellow which we have a harder time seeing any suttle changes. I find this interesting because Anthony’s examples that he posted used the color red. Four out of the six base colors used are made from red. two from blue and no yellows. Again, don’t know what this has to do with f/stops and colors, but I thought I point this out. Maybe this something you might want to remember when composing a shot when one of the three primary colors are more dominating then any other color. [/QUOTE]
